Hello GIF

Hi, my name is

Pushpakant Behera.

I build low-latency, real-time systems with AI and distributed architecture

I am a Software Engineer at Oracle focused on WebRTC, AI agents, and cloud-native systems. My recent work spans SIMD and WebAssembly-based media optimization, resilient gRPC API design, and Kubernetes-backed services that power scalable real-time communication workloads.

About Me

I enjoy solving deep systems problems and building production software that is fast, reliable, and scalable.

Here are a few technologies I've been working with recently:

  • C/C++
  • Go
  • TypeScript
  • WebRTC
  • gRPC
  • Kubernetes

  • Engineered a SIMD-optimized noise suppression module using C++ intrinsics and WebAssembly, reducing processing latency from 120ms to 22ms.
  • Architected a real-time AI agent framework using Model Context Protocol (MCP) to ingest live streams with adaptive frame throttling.
  • Led bootstrapping of the Real-Time Health System (RTHS) Android client and delivered a telemedicine MVP two weeks ahead of schedule.
  • Designed idempotent gRPC APIs with retry budgets and exponential backoff to improve availability for stateful agent sessions.
  • Containerized microservices with Docker and Kubernetes, and managed signaling-node infrastructure with Terraform.

  • Decoupled audio and video publishing pipelines using Kotlin structured concurrency, reducing reconnection failures by around 60%.
  • Built custom JNI bindings to expose deep C++ WebRTC metrics like jitter and RTT to UI surfaces, cutting debugging time by 75%.
  • Overhauled Protocol Buffers build automation, eliminating manual merge conflicts and stabilizing CI/CD workflows.
  • Architected a dynamic settings module with Jetpack Compose to toggle advanced streaming features such as Dynacast and Simulcast in real time.
  • Ran extensive bandwidth tests across diverse network conditions and fixed race conditions behind hard reconnect failures.
